Yts Red Faction II – PC

Filled with the sort of over-the-top violence and cheeky futuristic propaganda seen in Paul Verhoeven’s popular sci-fi films Robocop, Total Recall, and Starship Troopers, Red Faction II is a successful sequel to last year’s popular PS2 first-person shooter. It’s got all the stuff that made the previous game a hit: lots of powerful weapons, lots of enemy fodder, a number of vehicles you can ride in, and some good multiplayer features. Red Faction II doesn’t stray far from the first game’s formula, but it improves upon the original while presenting a new storyline with a new cast of characters. And while the single-player campaign is pretty short, and the multiplayer portion has limitations of its own, Red Faction II is still one of the year’s best console shooters, and it’s sure to please fans of the first game.
